Hardware:
- Power switch (may convert to touch or waterproof button if charging system is implemented)
- Reset button
- WIFI button ??? - turn on/off
Software:
- WIFI access point (with menu for setting-up connection to home network)
- Local hosted webpage for access to board lighting settings
- Automatic switching from mobile device to home network when you get back to the house
- Connection to the home network allows the lights on the board to be synced to lights in the room
- When at home the board lights are added to the home automation menu (and the board is added as a device, with access to sensors and history data)
Currently:
- If the WIFI is on the microcontroller runs a local Access Point.
- A mobile device connects to the AP.
- Using a browser to go to a webpage for controls and settings.
TODO:
- First startup (or full reset) - run WIFI AP with such options as save current device and connect to home network.
- Second startup - scan for saved devices/networks.
- if home network found
- then connect.
- if mobile device found and no home network found
- then run WIFI AP.
- [ user connects mobile device to AP. ]
- if home network found
